Plastic trim popping out

[Reddirocket27]

Not sure if this panel is the same on coupes, so posting here too. This panel has popped out from behind the door rubber seal, and I don't see any clips or anything to hold it in place. Any ideas on how to make it stay closed?

There are trim clips behind that panel which hold it in.

You'll likely need to remove it and refit it correctly.

You'll need to pop the top caps off - above where the seatbelt comes out, then unclip that piece.

Thanks so much, just pull up the caps and reach down to re-seat the panels?

All going well you should be able to. Worst case scenario, you may have to pull the panel off and refit.

If you have a look at the instructions for the smart top module (should be a thread on that in here) they show how to pop those trims off.

Any trouble, I can see if I can find it after work.

Thanks again, and I scanned all 8 pages of the Smart Top thread but didn't see instruction - just two pictures of everything removed lol
